					| Jiang Leads Astros to Win |  
					| The Houston Astros defeated the Cleveland Indians, 8-4, at Progressive Field today. Leading the charge for Houston was third baseman Chang-wei Jiang. He went 4 for 4 with 4 singles and a walk, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 2. Gerardo Huerta, now 1-0, was credited with the win. He allowed no runs on no hits, while striking out 3 and walking 2. The defeat makes Cleveland 1-9. 
 It could have been a different outcome for Houston, had it not been for Addick de Vries, the 30-year old second baseman . de Vries contributed a 2-run  single in the top of the fourth inning to put Houston up, 4-2.
 
 "Chalk one up for the good guys," said Jiang. "I'm sure our fans enjoyed that win."
